Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) and Site Acceptance Test (SAT): Essential Steps Before Infrastructure Goes Live

Infrastructure for various industrial needs must meet specifications and technical requirements before use. To ensure infrastructure suitability and readiness, there are two important testing stages: the Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) and the Site Acceptance Test (SAT).


Both are conducted at different stages to verify compliance with specifications and ensure readiness before entering the operational phase.


  • Factory Acceptance Test (FAT)

Factory Acceptance Test is conducted at the manufacturing facility before equipment is delivered to the project site. This stage helps verify whether the product meets the specified requirements. Depending on the equipment and project scope, testing may include physical inspections, component verification, and functional testing.


  • Site Acceptance Test (SAT)

Unlike FAT, Site Acceptance Test is conducted at the installation site after the equipment has been delivered and installed according to project requirements.

This stage helps verify the equipment's condition and confirms that its functions and operation meet the agreed requirements. Testing procedures depend on the equipment type and project scope.


  • Supporting Infrastructure Readiness for Operations

FAT and SAT serve complementary purposes. FAT focuses on verification before delivery, while SAT focuses on verification after the equipment reaches the installation site.


GSPE provides logistics, installation, testing, and commissioning services to support project implementation. Testing and verification activities are carried out according to the equipment type and project requirements.


With a well-planned process, inspections before and after installation can help support infrastructure readiness before operation.
